I can't say I've ever been worried about my 360. :dunno:


Re: XBOX 360 - Gamertags in 1st post - Kaan - 06-25-2013

i got my xbox360 late in the game... after all the updates. my 360 elite was built after they "fixed" all the red ring issues and it still got a red ring.

I'll get a PS4 as long as some other people I know get it so we can pwn noobs together. I am honestly not super stoked about the XB1, I keep going back and forth on it. FWIW I had at least 2 or 3 RRODs and my current 360 is super noisy and probably on its way there. 1 of them MS replaced under warranty, which then died again a week after I got it back and they refused to fix it. I know of 0 people who ever had an issue with a Playstation.

And only 1 of them actually used it.

Hah... PS = Android except Android has a greater market share, which makes it even funnier that they're used less.

At least 4 of my coworkers have PS3's and none of them have had issues either. I may start with a XB1 but if there are a bunch of bullshit hardware failures I am going to fire sale that bitch.

Sold. I'll give you $150 once the XB1's start to fail

See how different that is from "Oh, your XBox is broken, everyone knows it's our fault but since you've owned it for more than a year pay us 100 dollars anyway."

Haha I remember that exact call. MS fixed my XBOX under warranty but when it crashed again a week or so later (which put it past the one year mark) they refused to warranty it and wanted me to pay. "So you don't warranty your warranty work?"

It was shady but I ended up finding a "work around" for my broken xbox through a purchase at a local retailer. I figured they had more clout with Microsoft to deal with a returned product than I do.

Just commenting on the general theme that PS's are Russian Machines.

I know Audi's break because of crap design, but I don't expect them to fix it out of warranty. Tongue


Re: XBOX 360 - Gamertags in 1st post - WRXtranceformed - 06-27-2013

Would you expect them to stand behind their warranty work? I would.

I wish I could see Gerald's face when he reads this.

Sooooooooooooooo...Playstation, Anyone?


Re: XBOX 360 - Gamertags in 1st post - WRXtranceformed - 07-03-2013

I'm down to make the switch. My favorite comment of the night from you: "Knowing what you know now, If XBOX was a car would you buy it again?"

Can't say the answer would be yes.


Re: XBOX 360 - Gamertags in 1st post - Apoc - 07-03-2013

Says the guy who's going to buy the same car, with better specs, two years later. Sounds similar to me. Big Grin

People like to hate on Ballmer, but consider that Microsoft stock is at a 5 year high. They're doing something right.

To be fair, I haven't gone through three identical CTS's in that two year period or had any significant problems with mine other than some TSB related stuff and a dead coil pack Tongue
